There are 4 of us on the Modern Divorce Team, one mediator, one financial expert and two collaborative family lawyers. Together we provide all the expertise you need on one team and at a FIXED PRICE. Less time, money and less conflict and uncertainty than the standard divorce solution.

We created this option to ease the stress of our clients, and to ease the uncertainty of managing the unfamiliar process of separation.

Our one step, all-inclusive package guarantees that we’ll guide you through all the parenting and financial decisions you need to get yourself free and clear.

Mediation has recently become a popular way to settle cases of separation and divorce. Unlike a lawyer, who is trained to take the side of one client and give advice, a mediator is asked to be “in the middle” of those in dispute. Mediators facilitate conversations that ensure you negotiate respectfully with one another. You reconcile your differences by constructing an agreement acceptable to both parties, without the mediator taking sides or imposing any binding decisions.

There are some real advantages to this way of resolving disputes:
➡️It is less stressful than a court trial
➡️It’s less expensive and is over more quickly
➡️A judge doesn’t make the final decision. Parties in dispute work it out together
➡️The process is confidential, whereas court trials are on the public record
➡️Because mediation requires respectful communication and mutual decision-making, it tends to improve communication between divorcing parents. This has future benefits when you are co-parenting

Did you know that Mediation is voluntary, confidential, and non-adversarial?

Mediation is an approach to dispute resolution that succeeds by facilitating parties as they work together to generate their solutions. Having an open conversation in a safe environment allows participants to understand better what really matters to one another.⁠

About

Reflective Mediation helps separating couples, individuals, and families resolve conflict and improve communication.

Facilitated conversations settle disputes in the present and prevent them from escalating further in the future by ensuring participants actually hear what one another are saying and understand one another’s interests. Mindful communication helps people understand one another’s needs, and often to more deeply appreciate their own. Understanding builds bridges where reaching mutually beneficial solutions become easier. This process is not about having someone telling you what to do, it’s about listening and becoming empowered to reach an agreement, settling disputes in a way that satisfies the interests of all parties involved. “My mission is to help individuals resolve crisis in their lives, and thereby to enrich their relationships.” – MIKE MACCONNELL
